I knocked on the door and waited for Mom to open it.
Click.
"Oh my God, how was it?!" She asked excitedly when she saw me.
"Can I come in first?" I pleaded.
The heels were killing my feet.
I went in, poured myself a glass of water and sat on a dining table chair. Mom sat beside me and looked at me in anticipation.
"Where's Big Mommy?"
"She's asleep. You know her time. Now tell me, how did everything go?!"
"It was lovely Mom."
"OH MY GOD I'M SO HAPPY!!" She squealed and clapped her hands in excitement.
"Mom, calm down, you'll wake Big Mommy up!" I tried to make her lower down her volume but my request seemed to have no effect on her.
"I'M SO HAPPY! WHAT ELSE HAPPENED?"
"We're meeting tomorrow." I said plainly on the outside, but inside, I was trying to control a grin from spreading across my face as I imagined my mother's dramatic reaction.
"OH MY GOD! REALLY? I'M SO PROUD OF YOU SEO-YEON AH! FINALLY!"
"Thanks Mom. I wanted to stay with him longer and I think he wanted that too but then I thought you'd scold me for arriving late so I ended the date and came b—"
"WHAT?!!"
I flinched as Mom eyed me with a murderous look.
"You did WHAT?!"
"I cancelled the date because I thought you'd worry." I said nervously, my voice sounding skeptical.
She looked at me for some time. Slowly, her eyes softened and she stood up and hugged me.
"I was going to scold you for doing that but no, you did the right thing. It's just the first date. I'm glad you didn't turn into a woman like me. I'm proud of you."
We made eye contact and she caressed my cheek with her hand.
"Don't say that..." I said softly as tears started welling up in my own eyes.
"I love you Mom." I said and hugged her by her waist tightly, resting my head in her tummy while she stood and pecked my head.
"I love you too baby." She replied.
"If the melodrama has ended, can we get back to sleep? You two are such a nuisance." Big Mommy interuppted us with her voice and we both separated.
"Sorry Big Mommy."
"Ah, Amma, sorry for waking you up."
I got up, hugged Mom one last time, gave her a soft smile which she returned and headed to my room.

"Amma, let's go and sleep." Eun-Jung said to her mother.
"You go first. I'll have some water and then come." Big Mommy replied.
"Okay, Good Night." She said and went to her room.
Big Mommy stood there for a few minutes, reminiscing the beautifully pure scene she'd watched a few minutes ago.
Oh, how her heart had melted! She had been missing such a sweet interaction of two for what seemed like ages now.
She switched off the lights and whispered, " I also love you two so much, my girls."
Then she went to her room.
